Validating Driver Behavior and Attitude Measure for Older Italian Drivers and Investigating Their Link to Rare Collision Events

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
The present study aimed to: (a) validate the factor structures of three scales assessing driving behavior, attitudes toward traffic safety (ATTS) and self-regulation in driving, in a sample of Italian older adults, through confirmatory factor analyses ...

Modeling zero-inflated count data with glmmTMB

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2017
Ecological phenomena are often measured in the form of count data. These data can be analyzed using generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) when observations are correlated in ways that require random effects. However, count data are often zero-inflated,

Are Composition Surveys for Mule Deer Along Roads or From Helicopters Biased? Lessons from the Field

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2020
Monitoring sex and age ratios (i.e., population composition) is common practice in deer (Odocoileus spp.) management because these estimates are used to determine population vital rates, as well as assess effects of hunting regulations and other ...

Ordinal regression models for zero-inflated and/or over-dispersed count data

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Count data commonly arise in natural sciences but adequately modeling these data is challenging due to zero-inflation and over-dispersion. While multiple parametric modeling approaches have been proposed, unfortunately there is no consensus regarding how

Carcinomas and Carcinoid Tumors of the Lungs and Bronchi in Children and Adolescents: The EXPeRT Recommendations

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary lung carcinomas and bronchial carcinoid tumors (BC) are very rare malignancies in childhood. While typical BC and mucoepidermoid carcinomas are mostly low‐grade, localized tumors with a more favorable prognosis than in adults, necessitating avoidance of overtreatment, adenocarcinomas of the lung are often diagnosed at advanced disease ...

Zero-inflated Bell regression models for count data

open access: yesJournal of Applied Statistics, 2019
By starting from the one-parameter Bell distribution proposed recently in the statistic literature, we introduce the zero-inflated Bell family of distributions.

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

On the Validity of Granger Causality for Ecological Count Time Series

open access: yesEconometrics
Knowledge of causal relationships is fundamental for understanding the dynamic mechanisms of ecological systems. To detect such relationships from multivariate time series, Granger causality, an idea first developed in econometrics, has been formulated ...

On Goodness-of-Fit Tests for the Neyman Type A Distribution

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2023
The two-parameter Neyman type A distribution is quite useful for modeling count data, since it corresponds to a simple, flexible and overdispersed discrete distribution, which is also zero[1]inflated.
